Hair Talk: Lets do the Twist..Mini that is

Hello everyone,

Yes another post [lol] but I cant help it. This Friday i decided to do mini twist for the first time but was really nervous because I wasn't sure how they would come out, I'm so so soooo happy with the results. I washed with black soap, the DC with DIY: Greek Yogurt DC, moisturized, sealed, then went to work. I started my twists wet; finished half of my head then got tired. So I flat twisted the rest and when i woke up the next morning i realized that the dry stretched hair looked better with the mini twist so i had to do a few over. But i finally finished and this morning I really saw the whole look and i LOVEEEE it.

[p.s. ignore the lightness of my face]

Hair Talk: Hair Of The Day.

Hello Everyone, 

I never do anything to my hair, I always run to two strand twists after a wash or co-wash. So yes I'm boring I know....well at least when it comes to my hair. Well not any more from this day on I will try to do a hair of the day or week or something. This will give me a reason to experiment with my hair and styles. Now I would like to present Day 1:

I didnt do at all because as stated earlier "I'm boring" but bottom line I put good ol' two strand twists in for about a week then took them down this morning and these are my results. Very, very defined twists not very big but i think day 2 will change all that. Here are a few pictures of day one:

P.S. I'm 8months natural!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hair Talk: The Braids Are Gone, But Not For Long!

sorry for the face this is 12 something @ night

Hello Everyone,


As you see I took my box braids down I did this about 1 1/2 weeks ago. Now when I had then in I was so excited to take them out so I can have my coils back but when I took them down and saw the madness that is my hair I couldn't wait to put the braids back in. But I knew this would be a chance for my hair to breath and take a load off. After the hard part was over I washed my hair with Garnier Fructis Smooth and Sleek Shampoo and then I did the Aphogee 2 Step Protein Treatment. Then I DC with my homemade mixture for about 1 hour, applied Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Restorative Conditioning Milk as a leave-in sealed the moisture with castor oil, then did a two strand twist with Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Deep Treatment Masque. The only problem I had was with detangling, I used a new comb/brush (review coming up) and I saw alot of shedding/breakage that really scared me so yes i stopped using that brush/comb asap and went back to my wide tooth lover. Now this could have been a result of not detangling for over a month and having the braids in but still I was scared. Aside from the scary stuff I had growth that made me grin from ear to ear [lol]. But with the breakage and the growth i still  didnt want to expose my hair to the elements just yet so I threw a homemade wig on for church until the heat hit me and that wig came right off [lol] But yes i will be putting the braids back in for the rest of the summer while I finish up some summer classes and what not so I don't have to do my hair and try to keep up with the fast pace of summer classes.   

Don't mind the make up I was trying something new
